The bigger clear aperture brings wider field of view in guiding. It is easy to use, and suitable for users who are interested in long focal length photography.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo take the most advantage of it, we recommend you to match it with large format guiding cameras.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLightweight and exquisite, 17.5mm thickness.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrism size: 12*12mm.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe effective light-passing aperture is 11.7mm*8.3mm.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCan be used to connect the main camera and guide camera simultaneously.

The large clear aperture supports full-frame cameras without vignetting.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe major differences between OAG-L and M68 OAG are about the prism size and the threads. OAG-L removed the inner threads so you can directly use the screws to connect it to other equipment.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIf the thread of your telescope side is M48, then you don’t need to remove the M48 sensor tilt plate coming with OAG-L. On the contrary, you need to remove it and use some other sensor tilt plate at the corresponding thread of your telescope.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhile adding OAG-L into your optical train, please make sure the prism won’t block the camera sensor.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou can use the guiding screw to adjust the guiding camera’s focus length. Please make sure the distances from the prism to the main camera and to the guide camera are the same.
